Our day trip to Narvik was an introduction to the adequate Norwegian lunch. We got decent sandwiches and a tall black tea. Then we decided we also needed a little dessert and a coffee. That was interesting. The Family got a nice long story about the different kinds of breads and buns that you get in Norway, and she took the bakery assistant’s suggestion to try out the seasonal Solboller. The translation of the name is Sun bun, and it seems that it celebrates the end of winter. There was bright sunlight outside, and that early in February, it was a nice crisp ten below zero. So I guess it was the end of winter up there.
That left me with the hard choice of whether to take the same thing or look for something else. I did not feel like having a regular cinnamon or cardamom bun. So I took the fallback option of Solskinnboller, the sunshine bun. Both these buns are made of dough mixed with cinnamon powder and are topped with a custard. The difference is only in the proportions of custard and bread. They rounded off the lunch pretty nicely.
